The Groton Weather Blog is just another dimension of the Groton Weather experience. I use the blog for longer range forecasts, updates and more in depth information on major events, as well as educational purposes. Please leave comments any time you wish; I am hoping this becomes more interactive! And be sure to check out the homepage at www.grotonweather.com!

A New WARNING

As the first storm begins to move into Cortland County after putting down 3/4" hail in King Ferry, a new batch of storms has prompted a warning for Tompkins County and points west. As of now, the worst of this storm looks to be heading along Route 13 and points south, arriving in Ithaca roughly at 4:30, and Dryden about 4:45. As you can see on the radar, this storm is bulging eastward in the middle. That is a classic bow echo signature, which is indicative of some very strong winds. Those in Ithaca and Dryden will want to rush to bring in lawn furniture and anything else that can blow around!
